Butterfly emerges





Remember the caterpillar that was my first photo of the day? I have included the catapiller nursery. Everyday Steve and I would count all our caterpillars, making sure we did not lose any. Aren't we good "Cater"parents? I am a proud "Cater"Mom of a butterfly, or is it the ButterMom. Probably ButterMom since I have been using many Paula Dean recipes.

In the second picture you can see the crystallises from which the butterfly emerged. ( My mother would be so happy I did not end with a dangling preposition) I was so excited that I was able to capture this with my camera. In fact the first flight was directly over my head. I think that must be very good luck. In fact, I am sure it is "huge" good luck. I ran all over the yard trying to capture pictures of my beautiful butterfly baby but only got pictures of the tops of tress. I guess the butterfly is a little camera shy.
